1.7M enrollees out of 330M? I’d say that program is broke and I bet a lot of those enrollees are #BLM activists paid to enroll.

Sadly no surprise there, since Gov’t is exempt from HIPAA - HITECH violation penalties.
No consequence and accountability, encourages negligent culture.

FYI, Healthcare entities like insurance Co’s and hospitals can be and have been fined Millions of dollars for medical record data breaches.

Gov’t: do as I say, not as I do.

Lax government workers shouldn’t be entrusted with anything critical; not only is there no incentive for them to perform, there is often little recourse when they don’t.

No kidding? Just what did we expect from the ID Thief in Chief?

Wait till he commits massive bank fraud. You'll have to take the chip or lose all your money.

Former Kentucky Democratic Gov. Steve Beshear set up the KYNET exchange with an executive order.

Kentucky’s new Republican Governor Bevin has dismantled it.

No no no no no. There’s ‘paper work’ that says our privacy is their biggest concern.
